Think that will put way to much angle on cv joints

I also put the Teryx shocks on my 09Rhino700 an its a great an fairly easy upgrade. Poka had issue with his cv but come to find out he had aftermarket axles and they couldn't handle the angle. I have stock axles an have had zero issues from mine. I love the shocks.

How hard is the lift on cv's? And will the lift work with resi shocks?

I thought I read some where that the lift broke the top of resi shocks? Maybe I'm crazy?

You have to take the lift off to run the Teryx shocks. A few guys ran them with the lift and had a ton of issues. Best you can do on stock CVs is about 3" lift. Any more your asking for trouble.
Tommygun is correct. I was running aftermarket Axles and the cheap CVs couldn't handle the angle. I have about 800 miles issues free on OEM CVs now but my axles all have wear marks from rubbing on the Resi and axle hitting the frame. I love these shocks but they come with some issues.
